Letter to the Editor: Refuse to sign IL26-638

Published 1:00 pm Tuesday, October 21, 2025

Should school girls be required to provide verification of their reproductive anatomy?

Signature gathers are out getting signatures for IL26-638. They say this will keep boys out of girls sports, but it requires your girl’s genitals be inspected to prove they are a girl. Section 3 (2) of IL26-368 states the student will provide verification of their reproductive anatomy.

According to NBC News, About 3% of U.S. high schoolers identify as transgender, national survey finds.

So 97% of girls who are not Trans, must submit to a trauma-filled exam.

Please do not sign this initiative IL26-638 or vote for this assault against girls.
